Spring in Beijing is the best season of the year. There is no heat in summer, wind and sand in autumn, and severe cold in winter. In some places on the outskirts of Beijing, you can see people from the city going out for an outing everywhere.
After the Chinese New Year, Zhuang Rui's family all went to live in a manor on the outskirts of Beijing. They rode the white lion to chase the wind every day. They lived a very comfortable life, but King Kong had already settled on "Xuan Rui Island".
Living with a harem of three thousand people made the manor a little less lively.
The special auction of foreign art jointly organized by Zhuang Rui and Beijing Auction House has ended for more than a month. As the owner of the auction items, Zhuang Rui did not deliberately hide his identity at that time.
The objects that Zhuang Rui salvaged from the waters of Vigo Bay years ago have been dug out again, and many foreign experts have identified these works of art as coming from medieval South America and Europe.
However, as a result, the value of the items Zhuang Rui obtained in that sea area was also estimated by some thoughtful people.
Although Zhuang Rui has not been seen selling gold in the international market, some institutions still evaluate Zhuang Rui's harvest as more than three billion US dollars, making it the most profitable expedition in the modern international exploration world.
As soon as this news came out, various countries rushed to report it, so Zhuang Rui added several more titles to his many titles, such as internationally renowned explorer, deep-sea salvage expert, etc.
You must know that in foreign countries, exploration is the behavior that best demonstrates personal heroism. When Zhuang Rui's experience in Vigo Bay was reported, it immediately aroused strong interest from people from all over the world.
However, when some media got to know Zhuang Rui in depth, they discovered that in his short life, he actually experienced many adventures, such as pirate islands and forest ruins in Central Africa. The twists and turns were enough to make a movie.
A Hollywood blockbuster.
Zhuang Rui's achievements in the archaeological and art circles have also been discovered. As a result, many relevant foreign institutions and famous universities have sent invitations to Zhuang Rui, hoping to make an appointment with him.
The lecture was no less sensational than the one it caused in the country last year.
In China, in order to commend Zhuang Rui for his significant contributions to domestic archeology, Peking University officially awarded Zhuang Rui a professorship, making him the youngest professor at Peking University at the age of thirty-one.
However, under Zhuang Rui's various rejections, the professor added the word "honor" in front of him. Zhuang Rui knew his own background. Although he had made many achievements in on-site archaeology in recent years, he was asked to teach and educate people.
That is definitely misleading.
As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong. Once this reputation spread, invitations to various events flew to Zhuang Rui like flakes.
Various collection associations have invited him to give lectures, and some treasure appraisal programs have invited Zhuang Rui as a guest. Even CCTV's 100 forums are preparing to create a series of programs tailored for Zhuang Rui.
This annoyed Zhuang Rui a lot. He didn't make money from fame. The fame that stars in the entertainment industry regarded as their lives was just a joke in Zhuang Rui's eyes. If he had this spare time, it would be more practical to go out to sea and salvage some treasures.
After changing his mobile phone and other contact information, Zhuang Rui's world became peaceful. In addition to visiting the old man in Yuquan Mountain every week, Zhuang Rui stayed in the manor almost every day, a quiet place on the outskirts of Beijing.
It has become his paradise.
…
"Mr. Zhuang, some people came to the door. There is a man named Liu, Liu Chuan. He said he is your eldest brother. Can you let them in?"
On this day, when Zhuang Rui was riding Zhui Feng for a stroll in the manor, a security guard drove a battery car and chased him from the door. However, the speed of the battery car and Zhui Feng were so different that the guy had to yell.
Zhuang Rui slowed down his pace.
"My surname is Liu? My eldest brother? Hey, I understand. I'll pick him up myself..." Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment, then laughed, turned his horse's head and ran towards the gate of the manor.
"Hey, let me tell you, when my brothers came, they didn't even say hello to me first. I went to pick you up..."
After riding his horse to the door, Zhuang Rui was a little dumbfounded when he looked at the group of people standing there. Three taxis stopped at the door. Each taxi had a family sitting on it, and three of them happened to come.
The person standing at the front negotiating with the security guard was Liu Chuan. Behind him, Lei Lei was holding a boy with a runny nose. The little boy looked up and saw Zhuang Rui riding Chasing the Wind, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Standing on the left and right sides of Liu Chuan's family were the Yang Wei and Zhou Rui families from Zhonghai. Zhuang Rui never figured it out, how could these brothers get together?
"Hey, Mu Mu, are you using your phone as a decoration or throwing it into the pool? You can't get through.
By the way, I think you're too big of a kid. I'm here to see you, but you're being questioned by these guys at the door. Where do you get all those bad rules?"
Liu Chuan is still as loud as ever, but compared to his youthful days a few years ago, he has also matured a lot. After all, he is now a man with a family, a career, and children.
"You think I think so? Those reporters all have dog noses. Some people climbed over the fence a few days ago and almost didn't get bitten by the white lion. Come in, come in quickly..."
After letting several families into the manor, Qin Xuanbing and Zhuang's mother heard the noise outside, and they all came out to welcome them. These families were all the people closest to Zhuang Rui, and they burst into laughter.
However, Zhou Rui's little girl was only over a year old. She might have been frightened by strangers, so she burst into tears. Zhuang's mother took the child over with a smile and said, "You two are going to talk outside. You all have loud voices."
It scared the children..."
"Haha, Mom, let's go out right now. Let's go, Fangfangyuanyuan, and take our brothers and sisters to play outside..."
Zhuang Rui picked up Liu Chuan and Yang Wei's sons one by one, kissed him hard, and smiled at Zhou Rui who was following Liu Chuan and said: "Brother Zhou, it's rare for you to come here. This time
If you want to stay longer, I miss you so much..."
Zhou Rui is nearly forty years old. As he has settled down in the past few years, he has become a lot richer. The plateau red on his face has long disappeared, and he stands with a certain dignity.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Peng Fei, who had just heard the news, said quickly: "Yes, Brother Zhou, stay here longer. I said, my son happens to be older than your daughter. How about we get married?"
Bar?"
Zhou Rui got married in Pengcheng two years ago and just gave birth to a daughter last year. Zhuang Rui happened to be abroad at that time, but he asked Qin Xuanbing to go there in person and gave her a valuable jade pendant.
While Zhuang Rui was talking, he took Liu Chuan and others to the swimming pool in front of the villa. Not far away, a few older children, led by Fangyuan Yuanyuan, played with the white lion chasing the wind.
But what Peng Fei said just now made Liu Chuan unhappy. As soon as he sat down, he shouted loudly: "Peng Fei, I made an agreement with Brother Zhou a long time ago. Doudou is my son's wife. I told you, don't try to snatch her away."
…”
"Ahem, I don't want to kiss my baby now. Let's wait and see which boy has the ability when he grows up. Speaking of Brother Liu, doesn't Brother Zhuang have a little princess?"
Peng Fei brought the topic to Zhuang Rui, and Liu Chuan's eyes rolled, obviously very interested.
"Hey, let me tell you, you guys are too ungrateful, aren't you? Zhuang Rui's daughter can only match my son. Look, how much fun it is..."
This time it was Viagra's turn to refuse. With three boys and two daughters, it was obvious that there were more wolves than meat. If we didn't start early, one of them would be without a wife.
"Yes, Peng Fei is right. Maybe he won't look down on you two boys when he grows up..." Zhuang Rui smiled and lit a cigarette. He looked at these close friends in the smoke and felt extremely happy.
.
In recent years, due to changes in status and accumulation of wealth, Zhuang Rui has unnaturally acquired the aura of a man in a position of power. Whether he is a company employee or a manor security guard, he is always a little cautious when talking to him.
Even several of his old classmates, except for the eldest brother Weiwei, have lost contact with each other now. The fourth child, who is managing the fund for him, has lost his usual playfulness and has become much more serious when he sees Zhuang Rui.
The second child, who works in the capital, basically only visits Zhuang Rui's house during the holidays. He is closer than before when he was in college, which makes Zhuang Rui feel much more distant.
Zhuang Rui also knows that as age increases and social status changes, this is the price that must be paid for growth, but this kind of change makes Zhuang Rui very uncomfortable.
However, the appearance of Liu Chuan made Zhuang Rui feel the brotherly love again, and the arrival of Viagra made Zhuang Rui seem to relive the friendship he had in college without a trace of utilitarianism.
Zhuang Rui even had an idea in his mind, otherwise he would go back to Pengcheng to live, or leave a house for his brothers on Xuanrui Island, otherwise his life would be boring.
"Zhuang Rui, I came here first to see my godmother, and secondly to tell you about the Mastiff Garden..."
When Zhuang Rui was wandering in his thoughts, Liu Chuan's voice pulled him back, "I recently did a market survey and found that in foreign countries, people call pets companion animals, which can treat a lot of psychological trauma.
Our country has become affluent in recent years, and many people keep pets. I am wondering if we should turn the mastiff park into a pet breeding base. What do you think?"
"Pet breeding base?" Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard this, and said: "Why are you asking me about this? The mastiff garden is yours, you can do whatever you want. By the way, if you don't have enough money, you can come to me..."
Seeing that Liu Chuan still wanted to speak, Zhuang Rui waved his hand, "Okay, let's stop talking about this, brothers. I'm quite curious, how did you come here with Viagra?"
Liu Chuan knew Yang Wei, but he met him through Zhuang Rui. They didn't have much contact with each other in private, so Zhuang Rui asked such a question.
